Publications
At a national conference on Plagiarism at NYU, Dr. Greene is credited with coining the term, “text offender”, seeking to establish a national registry of such plagiarists (see attachment). In 2010, she lectured at the Colloquium on Medical Ethics on “Honing up on Ethics in Osteoporosis: disease state, drug development and research” and on this topic at the annual NYU CME program “Boning up on osteoporosis” that she co-chairs.
